Great comfortable private room, slept well. Nice common area and courtyard. Highly recommended. Only negative points are ridiculously early check out time of 10:30 - and that they charge EUR 2.50 to leave behind in reception for a few hours

Nice hostel, good location, friendly staff. Only downside is that you pay extra for a locker (which I think should be a basic need in any hostel).

Total amount to be paid incl. taxes according Hotels.com was 208 euros. Could not pay in advance, had to pay at the hotel. They charged me 12 euros extra upon arrival. Explained it was a kind of tax. Allways skeptical when Hotels.com can’t charge the total amount. I experience that chosen hotel charge even more upon arrival. Happened last year as well in Marrakesh.

Loved the artwork on the property, friendly staff checked me in and made me feel welcome in Catania right away, it was my first time visiting so they recommended me some good things to do such as visit mount Etna. I wouldn't mind staying here again, social area met some cool people from all around the world. All in all this was a positive experience (:
